The local cops spent the next weeks trying to get the ticket back.I bet there were a few hard words in Highway Patrol headquarters over that one.

So here's a question...
We've worked out that a hovercraft doens't come under CAsA, so assuming it's registered under RMS (or whatever they call themselves these days), and you take out Marine third party insurance, what could The Rozzers get you for if you decided you didn't want to tow it to the boat ramp and simply drove it home?
